Great first period, and then: TIMMAY TIME! They didn't look good, but looked so much better than early-season expectations. Thanks for the ride, boys. Next year.

and, you gave UMD a hell of a lesson on playing till the whistle.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX
The reason for the talent in the west? Because MN didn't rely on Canada.

Re: Maine - the Golfing Season
Some Notes
-That was the 9th time in the last two seasons that UMaine lost or tied a game they held a multi-goal lead in.
-It was the 19th time in the last two seasons they lost or tied a game they led in at one point or another.
-It was the 29th time in the last two seasons they outshot an opponent through two periods, but were then outshot and/or outscored in the 3rd period.
Unfortunately, this is Maine Hockey's new M.O.
The last one, in terms of tonight, is what I really can't wrap my head around. You get stunned with 3 unanswered goals and go into the 2nd intermission down by one. You have one period to salvage your season and/or college career. You should be throwing the kitchen sink. And the best you can do is THREE....THREE?....THREE?! shots on goal in the 3rd period??

Re: Maine - the Golfing Season
UMD was a better, stronger team.
UMass-Lowell was actually in a similar position. Miami - for whatever reason - wasn't ready to go, right out of the gate. Lowell jumped on them enough that when Miami finally rallied, UML had a nice cushion and was able to hang on and get into a sudden death situation.
If Maine had been able to scratch across another power play goal (or even 2), the game might have had a different complexion.
But after the first half of the first period, Maine couldn't even establish offensive possession on the power play.
No surprise they couldn't do it 5x5 in the 3rd period. UMD was just a stronger team. Congrats to them. Hopefully Maine gets back soon -- and maybe get a first round game that's a better matchup.1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1995 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2012(!)

Re: Maine - the Golfing Season
Wait till next year, an all too familiar theme for Maine hockey. Hope the recruiting class is as good as Drew thinks it will be. Hope a goalie coach shows up alsoI swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell.

Re: Maine - the Golfing Season
I thought Maine outplayed UMD for most of the game. That fluky goal off the glass and the turnover immediately after that led to another sealed the deal. Still not sure how they allowed Maine's second goal to stand after the goal came off. I was at the game and didn't hear an explanation from the TV guys on it, but I thought the whistle was supposed to blow immediately.Brown Bears - 2014 National Champions

WORCESTER, Mass. - The University of Maine-Minnesota-Duluth game had its share of strange goals.
The first one came in the second period and prompted a release from the NCAA to explain the referee's decision to count the goal.
Here's what happened:
Duluth's Caleb Herbert dislodged the Maine goal as he skated in back of goalie Dan Sullivan.
No whistle was blown, however, as the Black Bears carried the puck up ice. Mike Cornell passed to Matt Mangene on the right wing. He cut in and beat Duluth goalie Kenny Reiter with a backhander and Maine led 2-0 with 12:50 left in the game.
The goal was allowed because of rule 6-10-c, which states: "If the nonoffending team has an offensive opportunity and its defensive goal cage has been displaced, play shall be allowed to continue until the scoring chance is complete."
Duluth's players thought the play was over and slowed down. Maine did not.
"I told the kids on the bench, that's a good reason to never quit on anything," said Bulldogs Coach Scott Sandelin. "Everyone (on Duluth) kind of quit on that play. Give Maine credit, they kept playing."
